I finally decided to get a previously reported problem with not being able to use the controls on my steering wheel for my phone originally. Then only about three months ago my radio volume control would not work? Then three weeks ago my cruise control packed it in. My tech/mechanic traced the problem to be a wire have being chaffed and causing a short. Long story he fixed it in good labour time but the electrical parts that had to be replaced cast close to $900.....a pretty outrageous cost in my mind from the Nissan parts department. I'm far from happy with Nissan at this time in my life.
